Rocky Road |
All you fine young bloods must think yourselves immune |
From the traps that time will set in the sweetest tune |
You must whistle up your winds and rosin up your bow |
But none can foretell which is the path the restless muse will go |
Oh, this rocky road, it makes a poor heart sore |
If I ever get off this rocky road, I’ll ne’er get on it any more |
Oh, this rocky road, it makes a poor heart sore |
If I ever get off this rocky road, I’ll ne’er get on it any more |
I used to take delight in my 'baccy and strong beer |
I’d blow the smoke rings way up high, watch them disappear |
And I’d drain the tumblers dry, just to loosen up my tongue |
And I’d sing the weary miles behind with a rambling song |
Oh, this rocky road, it makes a poor heart sore |
If I ever get off this rocky road, I’ll ne’er get on it any more |
Oh, this rocky road, it makes a poor heart sore |
If I ever get off this rocky road, I’ll ne’er get on it any more |
Well, I’ve roamed around this world and I’ve rode the clouds and the waves |
I’ve met with poor men who were kings and rich men who were slaves |
And I’ve knelt beneath the spires and I’ve heard some holy men |
Bend the words to fit the world as it seems to them |
Oh, this rocky road, it makes a poor heart sore |
If I ever get off this rocky road, I’ll ne’er get on it any more |
Oh, this rocky road, it makes a poor heart sore |
If I ever get off this rocky road, I’ll ne’er get on it any more |
Not any more |
Not any more |
